Abstract: A local area network is provided where an OFDM station and DSSS/CCK station coexist. During a contention-free period both stations operate under the point coordination function rules as defined in the IEEE 802.11 specification. Both stations transmit data when polled by the access point. The contention-free period comprises a sub-contention period during which only the OFDM station communicate.

Abstract: A surgical light system ( 10 ) includes a lighthead ( 44 ) coupled to a suspension arm ( 41 ') adapted for mounting to a surface ( 14 ) of a surgical room. A bulb ( 130 ) is disposed in the lighthead. A processor ( 120 ) in the lighthead is operatively coupled with the bulb for controlling an intensity of light of the bulb and is adapted to generate a lighthead status signal representative of a first status of the lighthead. A control apparatus ( 32, 34 ) is in operative communication with the processor ( 120 ) in the lighthead. The control apparatus receives the lighthead status signal and selects a set of control algorithms from among a group of algorithms based on the lighthead status signal for controlling the lighthead. The lighthead status signal includes information regarding a size of the lighthead, an intensity of light from the bulb, a condition of the bulb, a level of current applied to the bulb, a level of current applied to the bulb, a level of voltage applied to the bulb, an internal temperature of the lighthead, and the presence of one or more of a video camera, a surgical task light, and a controllable ambient light. A human-readable display device ( 160 ) is provided for displaying information relating to the lighthead status signal. Several levels of redundancy are provided in the control system to minimize the potential loss of control due to failures. In that regard, the lightheads are operable when the control apparatus ( 32, 34 ) fails.

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an etching method in which particles do not adhere easily to the inner wall of a vacuum chamber.  <P>SOLUTION: In the etching method, purge gas is introduced into a processing chamber 12 when a substrate 15 is heated.

Furthermore, even if the coating to be processed reacts on the thermal decomposition gas to produce particles, the particles are washed away by the purge gas flowing between the inner wall of the processing chamber 12 and the circumference of the substrate 15. According to the inventive etching method, troublesome cleaning work for removing particles from the processing chamber 12 by stopping the etching system is not required.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
